Questions about high-speed roller doors in Walkden
What happens if a forklift hits it?
Many fabric doors have a self-repairing curtain that comes out of the guides on impact and re-feeds on the next cycle.
Can high-speed doors be used outside?
Yes, with wind-rated construction for the exposure of the opening.
Do I need permission for high-speed roller doors in Walkden?
Possibly. New doors on industrial buildings can need planning permission if they change the elevation, and doors in fire compartment walls must suit the fire strategy. We recommend checking with your local council first.
